Time Bomb: The Incredible Story of Phillip Ndou is more than just a sports documentary. It’s a journey through time, tracing the life and career of one of South Africa’s greatest boxing talents, world title challenger Phillip Ndou.
From the very beginning, Ndou’s life was set to be extraordinary, defying the odds that were constantly stacked against him. From his birth on the side of a road to his fight to the top of the boxing world and his legendary bout against Floyd Mayweather, Time Bomb brings us the human story behind the champion.
